Teens, want to learn to sculpt with wool?  Local artists from the Valley Art Gallery (formerly Town Center Gallery) will instruct teens in creating their very own crafty critters out of felted wool on Wednesday, November 11^th from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. in the Altrusa Theater of the Santa Maria Public Library.

Needle felting is fun, simple, and easy to learn.  The lifelike quality of wool lends itself as the perfect medium for sculpting animals and people. No need for sewing, stuffing, or wire parts.  Bring your imagination. Materials are provided.
